feature request: queue pages for download while offline #40

Hi, it would be a neat feature to mark links as for-download while offline, and fetch them when online again.

The use case is: I'd download something when I don't have time to read it right away. Later, without an online connection but with more time, I'd realize I needed subpages x,y,z, too. It would be neat to click on them and get a page "not avaliable, do you want to download them automatically once you're online again?"

Back in the dialup days, Wwwoffle had this feature, and I loved it.

I'll look into it, should be possible.

I'm quite busy with other things at the moment though, so might not get around working on this app for a while.

Thank you.

If you do implement this, it would be great to have it from the share menu. A typical use case would be: load a few tabs in orfox, go away, try to click on links later.
